Citizenship Application Scholarships
The citizenship application can be a daunting and costly process. With support from our generous donors, we are able to provide 4 scholarship opportunities per year to those individuals who are ready to file their citizenship application but demonstrate a financial burden prohibiting them from filing.
We will provide a $500 stipend to those who have graduated from our classes and have proven a financial hardship that is a barrier to their application. This stipend is paid directly to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service to help offset the rising costs of citizenship applications. We want our students to feel comfortable applying for citizenship. If you think you might qualify for financial assistance, please contact us!
